I asked for "Stalls in a D&D marker" and recieved

In a market in the world of Dungeons and Dragons, there could be a variety of different stalls and stands, each offering a different type of goods or services. Here are a few examples of possible stalls that could be found in such a market:

• A food and drink stall, offering fresh fruits, vegetables, meats, cheeses, and other provisions. The stall could be manned by a friendly, chatty vendor, who is always happy to offer samples and advice on the best way to prepare the food.

• A clothing and textiles stall, offering a wide selection of fabrics, garments, and accessories. The stall could be run by a skilled tailor or seamstress, who can custom-make clothing to fit the customer's exact measurements and specifications.

• A weapons and armor stall, offering a wide range of swords, shields, and other equipment for warriors and adventurers. The stall could be run by a gruff, burly blacksmith, who is always happy to demonstrate the quality and durability of his wares.

• A magical trinkets and artifacts stall, offering a wide variety of magical items and relics. The stall could be run by a mysterious, secretive dealer, who is always on the lookout for rare and valuable items to add to his collection.

• A healing and remedies stall, offering a wide range of potions, herbs, and other magical remedies for various ailments and injuries. The stall could be run by a wise and kindly healer, who is always willing to offer advice and assistance to those in need

The professional settings make considerably better and more detailed results. For instance:

>The horse stables were located at the edge of a large, flat meadow. A stream flowed through it and ended in an oxbow lake that was fed by another river on its way to the sea. The water had been diverted into ditches dug around the fields so that there would be no flooding when spring came. This made for some muddy riding conditions but allowed the horses plenty of grazing time without having to worry about being trapped inside their stalls or paddocks all day long.
>Inside, a dozen horses grazed contentedly while several others stood patiently waiting for attention from one of the stablehands who walked among them with carrots and apples held out over his head like offerings from heaven. At first glance they seemed perfectly healthy animals—not too fat nor thin; not overly muscular yet still strong enough to carry riders up hillsides or down narrow trails where other beasts might have trouble maneuvering.
>However, as I watched them eat, I saw how many were missing teeth and had scars across their backs which looked suspiciously like burns. There were also two geldings standing side-by-side outside the stall door who both sported blackened eyes, broken noses, and various cuts and scrapes.

As you can see in the pic, I only typed in the first words at the start of each paragraph, to broadly direct it what to focus on.

>>86982070
I’ve only had this for a little bit, and that was my first attempt. In that case, I copy and pasted the whole of the central “Green Book” text (not the prologue or epilogue), then started a next text afterwards.

Now, I did have to refresh each line several times to get it to focus in a desirable direction, and I also moved around the sentences to make them flow better. Although strangely, I didn’t actually type anything to direct the story, which I now realize would have made the process quicker.

Also, glad someone else likes The White People! Very underrated story, extremely fresh, even today.

the tech will get better, but it'll be hard to do very specific intentional things unless the model is trained and to be trained someone at some point needs to make the base art, but for most stuff I think eventually there is enough out there that decent prompting should provide some pretty powerful outputs. The skill is largely going to be in understanding how to prompt based on AI.
I can see it being a while before it's able to fulfil very specific visions with subtle intentionalities but I assume it'll get there.

>>86981801
straight-up demonic shit. we have already unleashed complex systems into the world which vastly exceed our own capacity to understand them. while theoreticians have been stuck debating how to define and proscribe “consciousness” and “intelligence,” engineers have succeeded in making constructs that perform tasks thought impossible just a generation ago - hell, only a few years ago in some cases.
We know not what we do.
Some fuckers even started programming FEAR OF DEATH into neural networks because it apparently improved their learning efficiency if they “thought” they’d be culled for not working hard enough
We will not know when we’ve created “true” machine intelligence, because the things we’ve already created have muddied the waters so inexorably that our abominations produce indistinguishable fascimilies of intelligence, such that we can’t tell where the mask ends and real introspection and self-awareness begins.

They're all still dumb as bricks though. That's why you had anime girls (not even the one requested) eating ramen like it was tea or pizza, instead of like ramen. The shit can recognize individual elements and put them together but cannot actually make any connections between the elements, nor really understand context. That's also why autonomous cars were stopping at logos that resembled stop signs.

That's not my angle to the criticism, it would be very easy to do something more with the output once it exists, but they do nothing afterwards to make it into their own thing. They use their hardware as a substitute for any kind of creativity or personal skill, and crowd out the people that use the website for its original purpose!

From my experience, it seems most if not all AI models are absolutely terrible with generating anything that isn't character art and location images. It's particularly bad with elongated objects like most weapons.

>>86983577
Because they lose their train of thought and have poor grasp on the notion of discrete object identity and coherence/permanence
People should start engaging with these like they really are dreaming demons, see if you can get them to creatively express things about how they see “the world” (so to speak), get freaky with it

>>86983577
The more complicated an object is, the more specific an AI you need for it.

You could absolutely get an AI that could do good guns, but you'd need it to learn on nothing but good guns.

Factor into the fact that most people drawing guns are pretty inconsistent with it(never mind all the fantasy/german space magic style gun drawing you get) and the AI likely doesn't have enough data to nail what a gun "should" look like down.

Taught an AI to figure out what street lights are, and it does great until it doesn't.

anons that are interested in this stuff can check out the stable diffusion threads on other boards (/g/, for one)

i have a local installation, and my 2070 is more than enough to crank out images.

it's interesting, but... dumb. very dumb.

it's like a retarded, but fast, artist that doesn't quite understand english, and might also be blind.

and for the moralfags: it, like all other artists, learned by observing other art and trying to make its own version.

>>86984671
yeah, that's kiiinda suggestive

>>86984816
nothing to do with morality but the process of iteration and output in stable diffusion has little true analogy to the otherwise superficial observation that humans can get a sense of what a thing is by looking at it and developing some categorical box in a semantic network

I'm going to let you in on a secret: AI is just a line. An incredibly fucking complex line that exists on a hyperplane beyond human comprehension, but just a line all the same.

Human-like AI is an entirely different field from machine learning. Machine Learning is just making a line.

>>86984956
it's extremely similar to the process of learning to make art, though.

observe, try it yourself, compare what you made with what you wanted to make, see where you went wrong, and repeat the process. a lot.

>>86984981
looking at it that way, again, is just a result of selective simplification, such as saying these two movies are basically the same because they have characters or these two sports are the basically same because they have balls or winners

There's no part of that process that is necessary for a person to do, whilst the iterative denoiser of SD is kind of what you'd assume a technology like this would be - a nice and fast automated way of generating outputs from encoded text.

A big part of the misconception is that brains are like computers. You can make analogies, but they aren't the same. Brains are analogy, the don't read or write separately and partly due to this encoding and retrieval of things that could be defined as discrete information is very different and, unless I'm forgetting some important submechanism, foundationally associative through mechanisms such as long term potentiate. I guess a simpler way of putting it might that when a person 'learns' how to produce something novel, or reproduce something, which may or may not include observing another thing, and an A.I. model 'trains' (leanrs) using exemplars, the word 'learns' is being used in the latter case in an equivocal way.

brains are certainly much more complex than the glorified matrix multiplies that most NNs are, but I don't think it's too extreme of a comparison to say it's approximately the same as a human artist learning to create art.

it seems reasonable to say that exposure to art does far more to 'create' an artist than any form of innate 'learning'- the process of training an AI is certainly more numeric, but fundamentally the same principle: expositing a concept by exposure to a large number of examples.

i contend that there isn't a magic sauce in the human brain that lets it do something beyond this basic 'learning from examples', which we can equate to a NN's 'training' process.
archaeologically, we can judge that art (drawings/paintings, say) took an astronomical amount of time to develop out from true tabula rasa humans. the earliest cave drawings we've found are startlingly recent, and VERY sparse: demonstrably, not a behavior that is emergent on short timescales.
but in modern and historic times, there is a rampant proclivity to artistic creation, even before the current era of leisure.
i suggest the difference is simple exposure to huge troves of example work to 'learn' and 'copy' from.

why am i writing a fucking thesis here

It's way too extreme a comparison. This tech is cool and all, and will likely become a lot better at doing the things it is currently bad at with comparatively less post-processing, but you're just focusing on superficial comparisons and ignoring the more fundamental disanalogies mentioned prior.

I don't think there is a special sauce either; it's just LTP plus other modular and cortical processes aren't doing the same thing as SD and don't get to an end result in the same way even if an artist might visually/mechanically encode stimulus.

What I think you might be trying to say is that SD does something like learning and people do something like learning and neither could make pictures without learning, so anything that supervenes on these things are occurring in the same way. But the encoding and application are really different.
I guess a follow up question would be, do you think a calculator and a human brain are basically doing the same thing when they compute arithmetic? At some point in the process, a brain is going to have to handle and apply something like an integer which is also something like what a calculator will have to do in order consistent, reproducible and generalizable results. How about the process of generating novel mental images?
Human perceptual systems will critically struggle at doing something SD can already do pretty well, say, imagine a tiger in the style of van gogh running through the forest in style of da vinci. At some point we get bad at juggling too many integrated conceptual categories at once are much better at perceptual filling-in than segmented processing. As soon as we start graphing and drawing and writing things down, in a way we are already augmenting our brain; an address book or notepad is a kind of external neural prosthetic.

Premodern history also seems like a bad precedent, where sophisticated artwork will rely on decently down-the-track materials and yes, some unique access to leisure time.

If a player shows up with an AI generated character portray he's getting kicked. If you're not willing to put in effort you have no business playing RPG's. It also looks ugly as sin.

I think the biggest problem outside of the uncanny inability to draw certain things like backgrounds and hands is the lack of consistency. This isn't 'the same angel, but thicker', it's a completely different angel with a different crown, outfit, wingspan, etc. The fact that you can't reliably output the same character means this won't be replacing real-world artists any time soon.

that's really the angle i was going for; as a rebuttal to the 'MUH PLAGIARISM' pearl-clutchers.
the predominant reason, i think, that we have so many artists now is that there is so much easily-accessible ART now, and artists pick it up from copying what they see, to put it uncharitably.
Thus a NN trained by, well, looking at art, should be on equal moral footing to human artists.

both are even transformative (hyuk hyuk) so it's not a question of one simply copying.
I haven't seen any of these image-creation NNs spitting out existing artwork verbatim, as we've seen with the 'code gen' AIs that have recently been making news.
the tech's cool, and getting better, but it's really not there yet.
anyone who's saying the AI 'does the work for you' or 'is replacing human artists' has clearly never tried to use these digital fucks.
getting SOMEthing is easy, getting something SPECIFIC is bloody impossible.

>>86990415
unfortunately I think they are so different that it's just reactively flippant to say that an artist looking at a picture is as plagiaristic as utilizing the discrete image data in a training model

Someone sees a mountain and decides to draw something like it, basically just copying what they see as closely as possible. That's something like what a camera can do. It 'sees' with the lens and 'draws' with chemical reactions on whatever type of film is involved (or pixels/RGB). I don't think we'd make a comparison that the camera is basically doing what the artist is doing because the way are using the words 'see' and 'draw' would become equivocal rather than just metaphorical. This is the way the you're using the word 'learning', and it prunes out a lot of the very interesting processing differences that would be necessary to consider when actually emulating brains. It's understandably intuitive because of how ubiquitous the brain/computer metaphor is culturally, and not that it's totally inappropriate, but brain metaphors typically resemble some technological edge of the era; brains have been previously thought of, for example, as esentially hydrological or mechanical/clockword.
And so when we ask how does SD 'know' what a bird is, our use of the word 'know' is already equivocal. Some older chess playing 'A.I.' would just brute force crunch through as many permutations forward as it could and maked a weighted decision on the best trajectory based on the score of that branch, but this is just a program that goes through a ton of iterations as fast as possible. Despite the fact that some (many? I assume advanced chess is less about computing many variations and more about recognizing and exploiting total and localized board states) human chess players will also arbitrate moves based on thinking of as many moves ahead on as many variations of possible moves as they can, no one would really say that that A.I. was really doing the same thing as chess players

>>86991815
at the same time, though, each advancing metaphor for how the brain functions is slightly more accurate than the previous one.

our fundamental flaw is that we (still) have no clear picture of *exactly* how the brain does what it does, so we can only state that "there is more going on" beyond whatever our best model states.
The closest approximation so far (and the most successful) is the neural network paradigm, which drove this entire ML revolution once comp-sci got wind of it.

On that basis, it seems basically correct to say that SD is doing a subset of what the brain is.
The brain is clearly doing more than is represented in a naive NN model, but what we naively model with NNs is still being done in the brain in an analog capacity; using neurotransmitters and activation energies instead of floating point numbers and sigmoid functions.

At a very minimum, SD is a fair approximation of the human visual cortex, with some layers on top giving us a mapping of words to visuals.
The human's visual cortex certainly doesn't 'know' what a bird is, but can easily produce images of one, even while the brain's frontal cortex is dormant during sleep.

I would never go so far as to claim SD has sapience, or sentience, or even the most basic comprehension of what it's doing, or even a conceptual 'it' to anthropomorphize.
But then again, a human does not need to comprehend the nuances of homeomorphic coordinates and affine transformations to be able to draw a picture that uses a 3d perspective projection.

>>86992039
in case my point was lost in the weeds there:
a human artist does not need to have any comprehension of the subjects they depict or the techniques they use, blindly copying content and technique serves just as well.

>>86992039

Our lack of perfect knowledge incognitive neuro is kind of just a function of the gaps; I'd argue that it is not as mysterious as is conventionally portrayed. Close approximations and subsets are basically unimportant in the sense of the issues you're bringing up, if you're sticking to the plagiarism issue. Especially because in a material sense, basic physical processes are also a subset. In this sense it doesn't really matter if you're substituting activation energies for abacus cubes, water spouts with rubber pressure thresholds or floating point numbers
SD is also not really close to the human visual cortex. The human visual cortex is one part of 'sight', which is constructed by two diverging streams that run through a whole panoply of other modules. To talk about the visual cortex itself, you have V1, the first place the optic nerves sense visual stimulus via the cornea, and all the V1 basically does is use ganglion ells to generate the hard lines in shapes, then send the stimulus onward for color, parallax etc. Particular lesions in these streams can produce bizarre results, such as 'cortical blindess', including the ability to dodge obstacles you aren't consciously able to perceive or the inability to mentally construct your perspectival left side when imagining a scene, but when you imagine the scene from another perspective can readily summon whatever was occluded but now other stuff is consciously unavailable to you (like a clocktower in a plaza or something).
This is what makes the equivocation argument so bad, or at least, very surface level, the dependencies, processes and applications of stimulus are so different we're already way outside of the otherwise pretty mechanically similar comparison of a lens and an iris.

you seem more familiar with the biological side than I am, so i'll have to bow out.

that said, what is your take on SD-is-plagiarism?
personally, i cannot fathom it being valid, for assorted reasons.
- it's wholly transformative,
- all artists are brought up by example and would not exist without it,
- merely observing art causes the viewer to be influenced by it, but this is not considered 'plagiarism',
- there are many examples of actual, unequivocal plagiarism, and even more examples of very-obviously-inspired-by remixes that are equally clearly not plagiarism, and SD's outputs are far closer to the latter than the former.

It can be a little convoluted but there'll be few preceding issues in defining plagiarism, since some liminal cases of homage, intertextuality and and inspiration are fine, and actual copyright law, which might be right in some cases and wrong in others given different definitions of 'bad' plagiarism. Given that, I'll try to give me thoughts on each point.

-wholly transformative. I don't know if it actually always is. A.I. can perfectly replicate a style or image instantly if it needs to while a person gets closer but never arrives.
-examples. Examples are different things in each case, no one has replicable copies of examples in their brains nor could replicate styles or images instantly after looking at them. It's also not clear what you mean that artists wouldn't exist without example; that they couldn't exist without sight?
-observation. I don't think SD and model training can be rightfully said to be merely observing art (not the least because observation has cognitive connotations). Additionally, I think equivocation is creeping back in. The way a model is 'influenced' by an image is not the same thing as a person being 'influenced' by an image; influence is an amazingly broad category that, if our case against plagiarism hinges on it, should be more specific.

The convolution comes back in when models where trained on datasets they had access to due to copyright exemptions for being non-profits, but the subsequent models were used in commercial ventures, breaking the spirit of the exemption. So the closer analogy would be, why do I have to ask or pay for permission to remake a matrix movie or a silenced 'the matrix' comic? The makers of the matrix were influenced by aasimov, geiger, baudrillard etc etc and used those examples. So before we even start, we have to reach a shared position on copyright law and what the protection of IPs/profiting off of other peoples work looks like.

US copyright law is a disaster unto itself. its almost certainly a copyright violation. loading an image in a web browser is technically a copyright violation.

it's actually extremely hard to get exact copies out of a NN, even when you overtrain it on that image. with an overtrained NN, you'll struggle to get anything *other* than endless trivial variations of your training data. with decently-trained one like SD, though, it's an absolute nightmare to even ballpark some specific original work.

the case for 'plagiarism' falls apart in my eyes because it appears to require overt and specific use of the original, not vague and indirect use as reference material. and, after the training process, all that's left is vague and indirect. i cannot count the number of times i've seen artists create works 'in the style of' another, there's no way that's plagiarism.

A more real issue is the question of if a machine can be considered to have created something under the law. If a machine can't be considered a creator, and thus, can't have it's creations copyrighted and all sorts of other legal tangles.

That's going to be a tricky question to answer, because some of the other major issues that arise from AI would be affected by it.

to clarify, 'overt and specific use' is in the final product: significant elements of the original are explicitly present in whatever the end result is.

regardless of further differences,
'acquisition and presentation of an image for human viewing' and
'acquisition and presentation of an image for NN training'
both require overt and specific "use" of the original, making it not by itself a distinguishing factor.

The 'exact copy' is what is directly protected from duplication and exploitation, and the point of comparison for plagiarism.
From there is a fuzzy continuum from "exact copy" to "completely different image", and distance along that continuum lies a breaking point where a work becomes merely 'based on' or 'similar to' the original, and not a copy or plagiarism.

I do not think it's meaningful to discuss whether a NN "is plagiarism" based on its training set:
One can discuss whether a specific output of a NN is similar enough to another work to be considered plagiarism,
just like we can discuss if certain outputs of a human artist are close enough to another work to be considered plagiarism.
In fact, I would argue that the criteria be identical in those two cases, because its possible to create "very similar" images using neural networks that were never trained on that specific image: existence in the training set has no implication on the plagiarism-ness of the output.

Now, whether whoever *trained* the NN broke copyright law in their use of the images is a separate question that i suspect that even the law does not have an answer to.

(words are hard)

>>86993220
>The 'exact copy' is what is directly protected from duplication and exploitation
isn't the exact copy being utilized in NN training?

Much of the clarifications here relate to some tangential case that the final product of an SD output would itself, in isolation, trigger one copyright law or other, but this is not the argument.

>Now, whether whoever *trained* the NN broke copyright law
Some probably did/do, but the major models did not, because they had access to copyrighted images via non-profit exemption. Those models are then used by companies which sell access to Stable Diffusion which could not produce valuable outputs without those models.

>>86981801
I've had players use them for character portraits but I haven't bothered a huge deal with actually generating any myself. Part of it is that for a homebrew game there's usually plenty of regular art out there in the first place, and the bigger time sink is integrating the artwork into the campaign in a useful way.
The most asset-heavy campaigns are usually ones I run online through a VTT, and the bigger time sink there is sorting/organizing/calling up art.
A lot of the big Western VTTs are still very much in the "virtual boardgame" paradigm, as opposed to having an interface that allows for the easy sorting and calling of a big image library - there are a few Japanese ones like CCFolia that definitely provide a greater ability to create a VN experience. CCFolia allows portrait swaps based on typed chat commands - ex. for changes in a character's expression in the VN style: that's a place where conceivably in the future the ability to generate the same character with multiple expressions would be very useful - but that just then adds to the tedium of uploading, tagging, and sorting files.

AI allows you to generate a lot of useful images, but the stopping block for the GM has always been the tools to sort/catalog/upload/display the asset library - that's something that needs more work.

There is no restriction on generic "use" of media, the restrictions are on redistribution and sale. For plagiarism, we could also add 'claims of original authorship', but that doesn't apply here either.

Using an image to train a NN does not violate this, and the NN, itself, does not contain an extractable copy or near-copy of the original material.

with sufficiently specific guidance and prompting, you might be able to get the NN to create something illegally close to copyrighted material, but you could do that with any compression algorithm or video codec.

indeed, NNs are now being used as "compression algorithms" for some applications.

>>86993413
>Using an image to train a NN does not violate this, and the NN, itself, does not contain an extractable copy or near-copy of the original material.

Incorrect. There are currently methods being studied to reverse engineer images used in training sets and have it produce an exact copy.

Huge deal in facial recognition field right now.

>>86993413
I'm following your interpretation, which invoked protection of exact copies from use and exploitation, which would seem to be the case when copyrighted material is used in models under a non-profit exemption and then subsequently used in commercial products. It's fine to distinguish between plagiarism conceptually and what actually triggers copyright law, but your challenge will be to propose a principle consistent between both. By contrast, commercialized models which produce music outputs absolutely cannot touch copyrighted material, simply because unlike rando artists, the music industry has the financial and legal reach to protect its claims.

The stable diffusion training set is 2.3 billion images.
Stable diffusion is trained on 512x512 3-channel images, representing ~1.8 petabytes of uncompressed data.
The distributed Stable Diffusion models are 4GB of data.
If those images are retrievable, we have achieved a data compression rate of 0.0002% on arbitrary images.
That is 1.7 bits of storage per 512x512 image.
Accurate extraction, or even APPROXIMATE extraction, at that scale, would be revolutionary.
I am skeptical.

>>86993474
>I'm following your interpretation, which invoked protection of exact copies from use and exploitation
what i stated was that exact copies are protected from 'duplication and exploitation'- duplication is not relevant, and exploitation traditionally refers to commercial exploitation- resale of a song, or something that uses the song verbatim in it, like a video.

I also provided precise clarification on how 'use' in the general sense, is not restricted. The music industry cracks down on distribution, not how people listen to the music.

Music generation is far behind image generation, as far as i can tell, because it's a harder problem both in terms of descriptive tagging and tolerable output. People are okay with waaaaay more 'bad output' in images than they are in audio.
Even the easiest field of audio generation, speech replication, is janky as fuck right now. I don't think "not training on published music" is what's slowing progress there.

>>86993629
i did math wrong, that's 1.7 BYTES of storage- 13.6 bits- but the point stands.

you can't even *index* 2.3 billion with 13.6 bits.

>>86993629
>I am skeptical.
Sure, it might not be feasible now. But this technology is accelerating, and the theory is sound, if out of my wheelhouse. The deal with NNs is they're only going to get better at this shit, and eventually you'll cap out on usable data.

There's also the shortcuts that can be achieved if anyone has access to the original datasets.

>>86993668
>you can get the images out if you have the images

>>86993629
>exploitation traditionally refers to commercial exploitation
isn't the use of a copyrighted image used under a non-profit exemption to create a commercial product commercial exploitation?
Or put another way, why would any applied definition of plagiaristic exploitation be so dynamically narrow as to be concerned only with pure mechanical reproduction suddenly and only in the case of SD?

>the music industry cracks down on distribution, not how people listen to the music
Accordingly, commercial musical output models do not touch copyrighted music

>Music generation is far behind image generation
I've noticed a generated piece seems to 'forget' specifics after a certain amount of seconds and devolve into some generic melody, but some of the cooler things I've seen kinda get around this by splicing multiple outputs or basically uploading a series of very short outputs

>>86993714
i can see where you're coming from, but are there other examples like this? where the output might use music/images/etc as an input, but be wholly transformed on the output?
i'm not sure it's "only in the case of SD" so much as "SD is the only case that exists".

>Accordingly, commercial musical output models do not touch copyrighted music
i'm not convinced by that. i mean, it might be the case, but im not familiar with many commercial music output models. additionally, SD isn't just drawing from "rando artists", and the RIAA aren't the only hyper-litigious crowd, pic related.

>
music gen appears to have a lot of the same issues that have been well-addressed by the text-gen crowd; the whole 'remembering the current context' bit, to refer back for motifs refrains and what not. i wonder when they'll start sharing notes.

>>86993704
Yes. Thus, if an artist, for example, wants to determine if a NN has stolen their work, they can use their own images to check it.

And this dataset access is sold to multiple groups.

But we arrive at the key point here: it is theoretically possible to reverse index an images out of the model, so the defense that the model can't reproduce the image lacks validity.

>>86993871
>i'm not sure it's "only in the case of SD"
I'm kind of asking you here, to come up with a principle that would apply sensibly across copyright cases while exempting SD. But your exact image for sale only principle doesn't catch all current copyright cases, nor does it seem to exempt the use of copyright material in training data.

>but im not familiar with many commercial music output models
